(which was about the VW Bora, but I think it's the same engine) That unique V5 engine, of course, is something else. The cylinders are arranged, two and three, in such a narrow Vee that they share t

Seat in recent years have always named their cars after cities and towns. Toledo is such a town in Spain. I think that the copyright must have run out with regard to the Triumph Toledo name. I doubt

Also, Ford got Toyota to back off from naming its big truck the T150 because it was close to F150. Daimler threatened Volvo when they started naming their models with single letter designations. Not
